This week’s Album Of The Week is a no brainer – I was very excited back in February when I heard that Blur were ready to put out a new album, although having remembered their sporadic “phone it in/maybe it’s a B side?” offerings in recent years (Bad Day, Under The Westway, The Puritan), not to mention Damon Albarn’s solo offerings, I did wonder if it was going to be another Think Tank and not a Modern Life Is Rubbish. First single Go Out helped to swing it towards the latter and the rest of the album didn’t disappoint – there isn’t one weak track on the album, and the words “return to form” are completely undeserved if talking about anything other than this.
